Gee, but you ought to have seen it last week. It was a whale of a boil," said George, "but we poulticed him, me and Dave did and now the swelling's nearly gone. You can ride him to-morrow if you like." Luxuriously Roger lit a cigar and climbed to the front seat with George.

Without stopping for food or sleep, Dannie nursed Jimmy. He rubbed, he bathed, he poulticed, he badgered the doctor and cursed his inability to do some good.
